This volume focuses on the spirituality and religious belief of clients within health and human service professions. The text addresses the challenge of understanding the client's perspective, even when it involves a religious tradition unfamiliar to the practitioner.
Elder Practice addresses an issue of increasing interest to the spectrum of professionals, paraprofessionals, and volunteers who work with the elderly-how to serve the rapidly expanding population of older adults who spend their later years as member of the community rather than as residents of an institutional facility. In this innovative volume, a team of social work professionals proposes a model that affords these adults the same coordinated care traditionally found in institutional settings.
